Hans Rosling at Zeitgeist Europe 2007
Stumble upon this very interesting video by Prof - Hans Rosling from Sweden on YouTube. He is professor of International health in one of the prestigious university in Sweden.

He is speaking at Google Zeitgesit Europe 07. He together with his son and daughter-in-law they developed a very interesting software called "GapFinder" and later sold it to google. I am not sure how true it is but the picture he is presenting about the economic gap in different countries is very interesting. To me, its a very rosy picture of the world, specially the statistics we read and learn. Being a economic student, Its very fascinating. I wish I had access to such information or software when I was studying. Sometime, I feel like I should go back to school and re-do my degree all over again. Wouldnt it be fun.?
